We are theme park enthusiasts but while we love the thrills, they don’t come cheap. With admission, lunch, treats and souvenirs, sometimes it can cost a small fortune for a day of fun. This is why I was so excited to let you know about FREE, yes FREE season passes for kids at Kings Dominion and  Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

Kings Dominion (Opening Day – March 25)

Kings Dominion is located in Doswell, Virginia, just 90 minutes from Washington, DC. The newly expanded Planet Snoopy has about 19 rides, a yummy SweetFrog and special acts and entertainment throughout. There are plenty of chances for photos with Snoopy and the Gang and rockin’ music that will have everyone dancing while waiting in line! After spending half the day at Planet Snoopy, families can head over to Soak City to enjoy several pools, splash areas and water slides. [Read about our experience at the park]
